Identifying risk factors for migraine progression is crucial for public health. This study examines remediable factors like medication overuse, obesity, and depression to guide preventive strategies.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Public Health
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Migraine is a chronic neurological disorder.
  • Migraine progression, termed transformed migraine, affects some individuals.
  • Identifying progression risk factors is a public health priority.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify remediable risk factors for migraine progression.
  • To provide a foundation for targeted preventive interventions.
  • To review evidence for specific risk factors and discuss interventions.

Main Methods:

  • Review of identified remediable risk factors for migraine progression.
  • Focus on factors including attack frequency, obesity, medication overuse, caffeine overuse, stress, depression, and sleep disorders.

  • Presentation of evidence and discussion of potential interventions.
  • Main Results:

    • Several remediable risk factors contribute to migraine progression.
    • Key factors include frequent attacks, obesity, medication overuse, caffeine overuse, stressful life events, depression, and sleep disorders.
    • Evidence supports these factors' roles in transforming episodic migraine to chronic forms.

    Conclusions:

    • Remediable risk factors offer targets for migraine progression prevention.
    • Interventions addressing obesity, medication overuse, and mental health may reduce transformed migraine.
    • Further research and clinical application of identified risk factors are warranted.
